Early yesterday morning small
number of the Native Sons Of this city
assembled at their hall, and headed

special train waiting at the First
Street Depot to take them to San
Diego, where to-day they will partici-
pate in the celebration of the natal
day of the State. While those who
marched were few in number, the
train was well filled with members Of
the order who were accompanied by
by their relatives, and in all there
were between four and five hundred
people, who will either take part in, or
witness the exercises. 1t was good
humored assemblage that departed,
and as the train pulled out shortly
after half-past 8 o'clock it left behind
large number who wished they were
also bound for the Diegan City. The
band played "The Girl l left behind
me" as the train started, and it will

POLICE COMMISSIONERS.
Business Transacted at Yester.
daY,S Meeting.

days MeetlnS.
A meeting OF the Board of Police
Commissioners was held yesterday
afternoon, all the members present,
including Captain Darcy, the newly
appointed chief. The office of Captain
of the force was declared vacant. On
motion Officer j. R. Fletcher was pro-
NOTED to fill the vacancy. He ap-
peared before the Eoard and received
suggestions upon which to act in the
future. Chief Darcy then suggested
the advisability of purchasing a
patrol wagon. Hesaid that at present
when an officer stationed in the sub
urbs of the city makes an arrest, he is
compelled to leave his beat for several
hours perhaps in order to make the
round trip to the police station.
Again if a person is danger
ously shot or run over
there is at present no contrivance
with which to remove him where he
can secure medical attendance. The
proposed wagon would De proVlueu
with seats for officers, fully equipped
with stretchers, etc., with which to
handle hospital cases. Mr.. Breed did
not favor the scheme, claiming that
the expense OF purchasing the outfit
and the subsequent feeding of the
horses would be an unnecessary
outlay.
The matter was finally laid over
until the next meeting.
Officers L. G. Loomis and w. L.
Jeffries were promoted to the posi-
tions of Sergeants. 1t will be theil
duty to visit the different beats
each watch and see that the officers
are faithfully performing their duty
BY unanimous vote, Edward Il
Afford was appointed a member o.
the department.

CALIFORNIA COMPETITION.
1t is stOniShing the Eastern
IrOra.TOrkerS.


SAN FRANCISCO, September S.-This
afternoon the stern of the new cruiser
Charleston was cast at the Pacific
rolling mills. This is the largest
casting ever made on this coast, and 4,
it is said, on the continent. The steel
stern-post, it will be remembered, was
cast on the 22nd of June. This was
an epoch in mechanical arts on this
coast. Eastern manufacturers had
looked upon competition from the
Pacific Coast as
EXCEEDINGLY PREsUMPTUoUs,
But the successful casting of the stern
post has opened their eyes to the fact
that Californians are fully able to
compete with them and thoroughly
capable of performing their contract
with the government. When finished
the stern will weigh 10000 pounds.

The bill Only N .eds The Presidents
Autograph

The Senate very promptly on Thurs
day concurred in the Honse amendment
and passed the bin appi opriating Sl0O,>
900 for a Public Building for our city.
The bill only needs the signature OF
President Cleveland to become law,
which we feel confident he will not
withhold. We are beyond chances now,
can almost say the public building is as
sured. Senator Morgan has the grateful
thanks of our people for his energetic
promptness and dligent work in our
behalf at all times, for this measure.
No city of its population 6,OO0- has
SO bright future as Huntsville, and all
that is needed to bring the "consuma-
ton SO devoutly wished for in ali things
in the fullest measure, is for our citizens
to arouse, unite Their abilities and ener-
gies, work together and all will be we'll.

a brilliant Reception.

WAsHINGF IN, Feb. 1.-The presidents re-
ception last night to the officers of the army
and navy and marine corps, was entirely
brilliant. The character Of the aSsemblage
was equaled only by the reception to the
diplomats of month ago, and in numbers
exceeded any of the nights reception held
this season at the executive mansion. 1t was
the general opinion that Mrs. Cleveland
never looked as lovely. She was gowned in
a costume of blue silk cut moderately low in
the neck, around which shone a dazzling dia-
mopd necklace Four thousand people were
greeted by the president and Mrs. Cleveland,
who were assisted in receiving by Mrs. Man
ming, Mrs. Endicott and Mrs. Villas Col.
Lamont stood at the end of the reception
party and for the first time prominently par
ticipated in formal presidential reception.
Among the notable visitors was Mr.. George
w. Child, of Philadelphia, who after brief
conversation with Mrs. Clevland, joined the
coteier of prominent people Immediately sur
rounding the hosts, and he in turn held an i'm
prumptu reception. A few minutes before
II. the presidential party walked through the
east room and retired to the private apart
ments for luncheon. All the parlors were
garlanded with flowers, and adorned with
tropical plants

NONDITION OF COTTON.
REPORT ISSUED BY THE AGRlCUL-
TURAL DEPARTMENT..

Dates of CLOSING the Picking Season. Pro-
the Staple and Price of Seed--Other
News From the National Capital
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE following is
the report of the cotton crop issued by the
the cotton crop Of 1886 shows the average
, Hate OF closing the picking season, the proper
ton of the crop marketed on the first of Feb
ruary, the quality of the staple, the price of
seed and the estimated product compared
| with that of 1885.
The close of picking is reported the same as
last year in the Carolinas and Texas, one day
earliar in Mississippi, two days later in
Georgia and Louisiana, four in Tennessee
and twenty y-one in Arkansas. The dates are:
North Carolina, December 2; South Caro-
| lima, November 80; Georgia, December l,
| Florida, November 81; Alabama, December
| 3; Mississippi, December Z; Louisiana, De-
cember II; Texas December 3; Arkansas,
I December 25: Tennessee, December Is. The
late maturing of the crop extended the season
slightly in few states. Only III Arkansas
was the season heightened by inability to
pick the heavy harvest earlier.
The returns of proportion marketed make
the average to February So. / per cent At
that date about ), $50 600 bales had gone from
she plantations. This would indicate crop
| of about o, 900 bales, a mere trihe above
| the November indications of rate of yield
The proportions by states are as follows:
North Carolina, 81; South Carolina, 80:
Georgia. IS; Florida, S3 Alabama, 81; Mis-
sissippi, 81; Louisiana, 50; Texas, S6; Arkan-
sas, 81; Tennessee, So. The quality of the
crop is superior. Rarely, if ever, have the
returns of cleanness and COLOR combined
with length of staple, equalled those just re-
ceived
EThe price of seed is low Complaint is made
Of combinations of oil millers to reduce
prices Renters will sell at any price; some
as low as or 8 cents a bushel. The best
planters refuse to sell at ruling rates. The
average in Mississippi and Louisiana is 10
cents, / in Arkansas, II in Texas and Ten
nessee, l3 in South Carolina, Georgia and AL
ALBANIA, Is in Florida Feeders of cattle and
sheep pay the highest rates. The product is
larger than last year in Florida, Tennessee,
Arkansas and Texas, and smaller in the other
states. The average result, from careful
analysis of the present returns, is an aggre-
gate less than 9 per cent. lower than that OF
last year.

At Worcester. Massachusetts,.

WORCESTER, MASS. Feb. 11-A special to
the Telegram from Brookfield, Mass, says:
The labor troubles at George Fl. Burt q Co S
factory continues unabated, and was one of
the most exciting since the trouble began.
Yesterday fifteen of the workmen received
the following notice:
''We take this means to notify you that we
shall have no further need of your services
under any conditions. If you have anything
in the factory please come and take it away.
We do this so you will not wait around ex-
pecting situation. j. w. ABBOTT,
Superintendent u
The lasters and treerers held a meeting and
voted to 60 in a body and remove their kits
and accordingly about 900 marched to the
factory and remove their effects About one
hundred lasters marched to North Brook
vile to hear a labor orator The men are
determined and will not give in without a
long and bitter fight. About one hundred
are at work, including forty knight Of labor.
Several new hands have arrived and gone to
work and the factory appears to be gradually
Rlling up. The strikers are very orderly.
The select men have ordered all saloons closed
until the trouble is settled There appears
to be an impression among some Of the
knights that they have got wrong idea of
shop, and that certain concessions could be
made on their part, which would induce con-
cessons on the part Of the firm and SO com
promise the matter and bring about a final
settlement.
